    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    Thank you so much. I really needed that today. I, too, am on Flonase. I think I forgot that. Anyways, if you see my posts, I talk about a post vaccine case I know where the woman presented with anxiety, panic, and Guillain-Barre-like syndrome. She is having trouble walking and needs a walker...

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    Hi @Mamabear. Your post was helpful as I do not feel so alone. I am in a spike and I'm now 3.5 months post COVID-19 vaccine. I keep praying like you. I had only situational tinnitus like after flying or loud noisy days or concert. Never bothered me. Do you think ours will resolve? I'm...

    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    Hello All, Just wanted to share my post-vaccine update. It's been 3 months since my vaccine and onset of very loud tinnitus. I've reported how it's been going in a few other posts. Since my last post, I had very reactive tinnitus that I could almost feel. I believe I read here that others...

    Share Your Coronavirus (COVID-19) Vaccine Experience: Any Impact on Your Tinnitus or Hyperacusis?

    Thank you so much for posting your update. One thing that has helped me is to journal the patterns of my tinnitus. I have noticed a very slight improvement from onset. Tomorrow I'm seeing my 4th ENT. Just hoping one is up to date on what's happening. I'd like to try meds but really want to know...

    My Husband Acquired On/Off Tinnitus After 2nd Shot of Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine

    Please read my posts about my experience after the 2nd Moderna vaccine. I had terrible anxiety and panic. Never in my life did I have that. The ringing was so bad I wanted to die. Thank God for this forum. I'm about 77 days or so out with some improvements. Anxiety and panic gone. Tinnitus...

    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    I'm a healthcare provider and not an anti vax person, but a skeptic. I got the vaccine because my husband got cancer thinking I was doing something for him. I also got it because my son lives far away and I didn't want my travel restricted. I regret that decision immensely as this tinnitus has...

    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    Hello All, I wanted to give you an update after 3 ENTs and about 75 days since onset of my tinnitus after the 2nd Moderna COVID-19 vaccine. Finally, the last ENT I went to is seeing patients that are having tinnitus, Bell's Palsey, and hearing loss from the vaccine. There have been about 30...

    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    Hello @Goofyfoot. I'm sorry for what you're going through. You are one of the few people who felt the same sensations as me. That sort of vibration between the ears. And a fullness. I finally am not feeling as much fullness and vibration but the level of tinnitus has only subsided a little in...

    Will You Get Vaccinated for Coronavirus (COVID-19)? Can It Make Tinnitus or Hyperacusis Worse?

    Do you happen to know if Moderna posted their findings related to tinnitus post vaccine? I haven't seen anything but curious to know if it's resolving for those people who received the Moderna vaccine. I am on day 69. It's slightly better but it would be nice to know if it fully resolves...

    Previously Barely Perceptible Tinnitus Got Much Worse After J&J COVID-19 Vaccine

    @ZoomDweebie, I'm on day 65 of this tinnitus and my story is much like yours. See my posts. I got the vaccine for 2 reasons, even though I was set against it. My husband got cancer and I work in Healthcare. So, eventually I would probably need it to keep working and support my husband. I have...

    I Got Tinnitus After the Second Shot of the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine

    Hello all, I wanted to provide an update. My tinnitus post 2nd Moderna vaccine is on day 65. I have some good days where I barely know it's there. But for the past 2 or 3 weeks I get spikes for 2 days. It's extremely frustrating and sends me into panic mode and I get really down. Still praying...

    Is My Tinnitus Caused by a Neck or C-Spine issue? Or Am I Just Going Crazy?

    @Syb, I was looking into prolotherapy with Dr Ross Hauser. I recommend you check out his videos on the internet. Very informative. Caringmedical.com I have no affiliation with them, but had my tinnitus come from cervical instability I would've gone there. Hope this helps.

    Share Your Coronavirus (COVID-19) Vaccine Experience: Any Impact on Your Tinnitus or Hyperacusis?

    My tinnitus began about 4 to 5 days out from 2nd dose of Moderna. I had slight fever and chills. I had taken Tylenol, Advil and Benadryl throughout the week. I had a reaction to the shot in my arm with swelling, redness and soreness. I woke up with neckache and loud ringing predominantly in left...

    Tinnitus from J&J COVID-19 Vaccine — Here's How I'm Managing

    @madeline S, you are in the right place for support. Hang in there. One of the things that helped me was hot showers. The shower masked the sound and helped me relax. Lots of chamomile tea, eating clean, melatonin, and most of all prayer. This forum is filled with amazing people. ♡

    @Gemmer, thank you for your post. It's been helpful and I appreciated your story. My husband is battling cancer and I feel horrible and guilty on the days I have breakdowns because of this. Your suggestions have been helpful. And I can identify with that ear fullness and sound, mostly one sided...

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    @Bobby B, thank you for asking. It's a very high pitched cricket sound that doesn't fluctuate as much as crickets. Sometimes it hisses and whistles like a high pitched kettle. Other times it's a tone. Sigh... sorry for the poor descriptions. Any insight is appreciated.

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    @BuzzyBee, thank you so much for your response and post to me. Today it's back to being loud. But I'm grateful for the couple of days I felt normal again. You have given me some hope. Thanks! It's almost 2 months for me.

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    Hello. You know I wish it were the dog hair. Yesterday had a landmark day of very little ringing. Felt normal. Today it's a different story. Just came home and broke down because it's so loud and annoying today. How is this possible? Mine is definitely related to vaccine because the dog hair...

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    @Sinewave and all, just wanted to give you an update. Past two days have been best since this all started. I see improvement even since yesterday. I went to ENT, also turned out I had a dog hair at the eardrum in the ear that was worse. He said it might give me some relief and it did. Please...

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    @K.A., I have never experienced anything like this with any other vaccine, but this vaccine is different from others as it's mRNA. Also, it's possible the injection could have been performed incorrectly. I'm a nurse and still have trouble wrapping my head around all this. The ENT told me it...

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    @Gav, thank you. It's been eight weeks. The docs at my hospital think there still could be benefit. I know every person and situation is different. I really don't want to exacerbate the problem. I appreciate your post. Thank you.

    Steroids: Prednisone / Dexamethasone / Others (Oral and Intratympanic Injections)

    Hello all, I see ENT on Wednesday. When I spoke to him he said he thinks he would put me on steroid (likely Prednisolone) and antiviral. I believe my tinnitus is the result of post vaccine something or other. It's been a nightmare. Any reduction in hissing and crickets would be great. I haven't...

    I Now Have Tinnitus After Receiving the Pfizer COVID-19 Vaccine

    I had a twitch in my upper lip for a few weeks after the vaccine, too, in addition to this tinnitus. It was awful but the twitch went away after about 3 to 4 weeks. Just thought I'd share that with you and see if anyone else had that.

    @tpeters1, thank you for your support. I have been this way since February 6th. 5 days after my shot. I haven't reported it yet to CDC but I think I might. There was a phone number that you could call. I have good days and bad. When I saw the audiologist on March 1, she said she read online (in...

    My Tinnitus & Hyperacusis Started After Having Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine & While Taking Steroids

    @sunnit, I appreciated your post. You are not alone with tinnitus waking you up after vaccine. My boss had that happen. I read about the Texas Roadhouse CEO. I felt that way and understood how he got there. Completely in despair I was. Prayed all day and paced the floor. I believe in God and so...

    Neurologist Requested a 3 Tesla MRI — Given the Loudness, I Decided Not to Go for It

    Hello all, I just had a 3 Tesla MRI last week in a wide bore machine (vs open bore). I used the orange spongy ear plugs and then they put a headset over. I told them about being sensitive to sound and asked they don't play loud music but make it softer. They turned it down. I have such panic...
